What does enhanced mode offer over mouse emulation mode (I'm not finding mouse emulation mode very useful or enjoyable)?

Enhanced mode always returns to the default straight ahead position when you look front.
Mouse mode can end up with you looking left to get the front view etc.

Also in enhanced mode you can configure the TIR response curve.

While we're on the subject, here's my request for additional irtracker support:

- enhanced mode of course
- ability to disable or freeze the view with keystroke (for those zoomed in views)
- ability to switch (on-the-fly) from look around view control of irtracker to change perspective control. Yes, this could be mapped to irtracker now but the lean your head perspective views change much too slowly for this to be useful with irtracker. Guess this would require a fundamental change in how your viewpoint change is now in effect.

Icer, I was about to bring that up, but you beat me to it. TrackIR offers developers help in getting it done (it only makes sense). That might help get the TIR project higher into that stack of paper on HT's inbox.

I flew for the first time with one of these on this weekend at a friends house, it was the version 3-pro, and the sim was IL2-AEP. It took me a couple of hours to get the hang of it but...HOLY IMMERSION BATMAN!
